Made with tomatoes and spices, these Dehydrated Pizza Flaxseed Crackers have the flavors of pizza. They are an easy healthy snack.
These Dehydrated Pizza Flaxseed are one of my favorite crackers, the other being my Spicy Flax Crackers. They are both delicious in their own way.
These raw crackers taste like pizza. They have a sweet concentrated tomato flavor combined with pizza spices.
Making your own crackers is super easy to do. They are a lot healthier than store-bought, with no processed ingredients.
Eat them with vegan cream cheese or your favorite dip. They are raw, vegan, low-carb, and gluten-free.

🧾 Ingredients
This is an overview of the ingredients. To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- Flaxseeds: Get gelatinous when liquid is added. I used golden flaxseeds, but either brown or golden flaxseeds work. You could also use chia seeds. If you use chia seeds, you'll use ½ as much.
- Spices: I used marjoram, thyme, oregano, basil, parsley, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper. Combined they remind me of pizza flavors. You could also use Italian seasoning or your favorites.
- Tomatoes: Any tomatoes will work.
- Onion: Adds a pungent flavor.
- Water: Thins the tomato mixture to soak the flaxseeds in.
🥣 Supplies
🔪 Instructions
Step 1: In a blender combine tomatoes, spices, and water. Blend until smooth.
Step 2: Place flaxseeds in a large bowl. Pour tomato mixture over flaxseeds and stir. Soak for at least an hour to get gelatinous.
Step 3: Pour the mixture onto a Teflon lined dehydrator sheet or use a spoon and pour spoonfuls of mixture to make round crackers. Dehydrate for 24-72 hours (depending upon how thick you make them and if they are individual crackers or a full sheet), or until crispy.
Flip halfway through for a faster dehydrating time. My crackers were pretty thick, so they took a long time to dehydrate.
You can score them with a butter knife, which makes the crackers easier to break apart and form squares. If you're going to score them, do it after they have been dehydrating awhile so that knife forms lines and do not disappear.
🥡 Storage
These raw flaxseed crackers will last several weeks in an airtight container at room temperature.
📖 Variations / Additions

👩🏻🍳 FAQs
I have never baked these raw crackers so I cannot tell you how they'll turn out. If you decide to try it, I would set your oven to the lowest temperature.
